No, really, who besides me can use X-SAMPA?

X-SAMPA is a phonetic alphabet used by linguists when typing.

 

Sounds like a rip-off of 1337!

Nope. Its an actual phonetic alphabet used for the phonetics of any language.

 

Phonetics..?

 

*facepalm*

The sounds of language.

 

I know..

It's a rip off of 1337..

 

No it's not.

1337 is not a phonetic script. It has nothing to do with it.

 

It is like codes, 1337 is like codes.
n00bs speak this language, n00bs speak 1337.

yeah. It's nothing like 1337. lol

 

Yes, it is like codes. But so are most scripts based on the Latin. Like our writing system. S+H=the 'sh' sound.

But, no. n00bs do not use X-SAMPA.

It is a phonetic alphabet for typing out the phonetics of human speech. Don't believe me? Clickie.
